He's going to be The President more likely to protect Bitcoin Rights for all Americans.

You might not like him, or you disagree with him, is he ideal, no but he's the preferred candidate to protect our Bitcoin.

You can say you're an anarchist, or a Communist, whatever, or that it won't effect you but trust me it will.

You think you can absolve yourself by not participating but unfortunately The Reality as it currently is, is that one person will become President, and that person will impact our ability to use Bitcoin freely without hindrance.

Because a group of people with guns call themselves the government and will kill you if you don’t pay

Ladies and gentlemen, the winning answer!

Stack Duo is my new favorite app

Can anyone help me download #Bisq on #macOS? It isn’t straight forward like any application and I am not smart enough to know how to solve it.

Donald Trump has done more for Bitcoin by spending it at Pubkey, & going to the Bitcoin conference than you have.

By bringing it into the highlight, he’s forced essentially at least half the country into supporting it by proxy.

I think my message might have been confusing with some of my examples.

My base currency in my personal financial management and business accounting software is Bitcoin denominated, not USD. The opposite of all other financial software that treat a Bitcoin as some kind of investment or asset like a stock and tracks its value in USD.

I immediately convert all fiat I receive to BTC and store it that way except if I get some fiat cash which I carry around in small amounts to help the needy I encounter.

Whenever I can, I pay bills or make purchases in BTC directly. If I have to use fiat to buy I use a credit card and pay it off in full each month by converting sufficient BTC to make the payment. So USD is only a payment rail I use for receiving or sending value I measure and account for in bitcoin.

For example, I recently took a cruise and covered expenses for my brothers in USD that we would split at the end. Each time I spent in USD I was mentally thinking of how much Bitcoin that was sometimes using the calculator if I couldn’t do the math in my head. At the end of the cruise, they paid me back in BTC that I had kept track of. When the credit card bill in USD is due later this month I will convert BTC to USD to pay it because I don’t have any cash balance in USD.

I follow this pattern as much as possible.

While prices are mostly not quoted in bitcoin, I mentally or manually convert the quoted price to bitcoin to determine relative to my bitcoin holding whether I’m comfortable making that purchase. When doing this over time every thing costs less in bitcoin to buy.

It isn’t a perfect system and most people cannot do it as it takes a lot of focused attention and change of mindset. But I’m motivated to force myself to do it and create the tools to make it easier so others can adopt them in an easier way and not have to do so many mental gymnastics.

Totally agree but I think we have more #MoE than we realize. That we can exchange bitcoin for ever more fiat which is a #MoE establishes the #SoV of bitcoin. With many layers of two transaction technologies under development by really smart people full #MoE will be achieved.

When #MoE adoption happens, likely suddenly, we will need tools for #UoA. They largely don’t exist today and so my focus in our community is to write a white paper to provide a vision for how to achieve #UoA and and building the tools to facilitate it.

If anybody wants to collaborate in this passion, please message me.

My thinking is that we need tools to easily track and account for our stored bitcoin and then convert USD prices back to bitcoin before we make a purchase or when we get paid in USD.

We begin to think of and manage our money like a person does who has USD and visits a country and encounters a different currency as #UoA (for example pesos in Mexico) and does the calculation back to USD to understand the “real” cost. Bitcoin if you stay in the country for more than a few weeks you begin to automatically and intuitively recognize the value of the new currency without having to convert back to USD

If bitcoin is your base currency and you track and account for your value in it, each time you need to transact in USD or any other currency you will convert mentally to bitcoin and assign value relative to your base currency of bitcoin. As bitcoin continues it adoption curve more and more people will think this way until the majority haven’t transition the pricing #UoA because they already think that way and businesses understand their costs in bitcoin too

This is too hard to do in your head but with simple apps that facilitate, it should be possible. I’m starting the journey to live 100% on bitcoin while treating USD receipts and payments and only a payment rail and I’m building the tools to make it easy for me to accomplish that and then share the tools with the world

Agree 100%. We have achieved #SoV based on fiat #MoE, but until we convert to #UoA bitcoin will be an asset and not money. For that reason, I’m working on a white paper about #UoA and tools to make it easier for bitcoin holders to think and manage their money in a bitcoin #UoA. If anybody had interest in this please message me to collaborate

Yeah I had to tighten it back up too.

I definitely need to sharpen it after that. I think I have the Dremel set for that?

Nice. Mines just some cheap off brand I picked up at good will this year for like 15$

I can’t use a gas powered one…

I really like my 14in plug in…

Ya I tried their meat bars but I couldn't get into the texture, neat idea for a product though.

anonymity is not a goal, anonymity is a tool. What you said is exactly like saying your primal objective with woodworking is using a hammer. Doesn't make any sense.

I heard monero has a cryptographic way of determining total supply so that argument may not be valid

Note to those who think voting matters:

The senile old man demonstrates that this country does not need a functioning president and it is being run by criminals nobody knows who they are much less voted for them.
